Dreams like Vapor In The Dark

This Poem was a collaboration with John Thomas Francis the owner of The world of the Light Walker – You don’t wanna know what’s goin’ on inside my personal life? Then get out my diary, yeah-NF, Know and my second Youngest brother. Enjoy!

You ask me what I dream of and I reply I don’t dream

But the truth is I do but they vanish like vapor in the dark on a moonless night

But first upon waking they seem like reality and I’m confused

Then they vanish like a cloud of vapor in the dark

Like they never were

Our dreams are fleeting things full of meaning and yet meaningless

Our lives are the same like vapor in the dark

Here and gone in the span of a breath our lives pass

We are finite and this universe is infinite

The world continue to spin on without us and our dreams

But our dreams are the fuel upon which the fires of change burn

We are but vapor but even vapor can ignite and spark a fire

Even in the dark vapors can ignite and provide quite show

We’re given one life

To change

To dream

To think

To wake

Fires of change

In our hearts

Just normies in the game

Short lives

Shorter impacts

Yet capable of changing everything

Everyone knows that alone we’re small

Alone the mortals are nothin

But together even the wizards fear us

Vapor in the dark?

Dreams of smoke and mirrors?

Sure

But those same smoke and mirrors

Those same vapors

Taught man to fly

Landed him on the moon

The little people

The experiments

The oddballs

The long shots

The overlooked

Took life and said

“No. No. No. We may be long shots”

“Screw that. We’ll shoot anyways.”

“Screw the toxic people. We’ll make beautiful things.”

“We’ll create wonders. Imitating the first creator.”

The mindset that taught us that there are wonders in the world

Is the one that said “It’s not just vapor it’s possible. DO IT ANYWAYS!”

So spark a flame, change the world. You’ve got it in you. Ignore the dark

Light a fire, it’s what we do and have done all along. You can change the world.

Not just vapors, but magic, change, beauty. Show us the future.

Show us your vapors catching a blaze in the dark
